So, you *might* be able to use a versioned build-depend on relevent pacakages.

I hope you'll consider filing a bug (wishlist??) on lyx requesting functionality. glade-2 allows such a thing. > BTW, you are testing this inside etch, right?

Actually I didn't know that, but probably should :) Then you might have found the best solution.. you should probably document it, maybe in README.Debian. I couldn't get latex or pdflatex to create a pdf with working embedded graphics. And having lyx output a latex file and build-depending on latex doesn't really buy you much. -- Clear skies, Justin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
